and these battery chargers have been energized and operating for seven years with no insulation failures, this item is considered closed.

< Licensee Action on Generic Letters Generic Letter 85-06 required the licensee to submit a schedule for complying with 10 CFR 50.62, the "ATWS Rule," and provide Quality Assurance guidance for ATWS equipment that is not safety related. The ,

licensee submitted the required schedule on October 10, 1985. In addition, the modifications required to comply with the ATWS rule have been or will be accomplished in accordance with the CECO Appendix B Quality Assurance program. This Generic Letter is considered closed.

,. . TI 2500/20 - Compliance With ATW Rule, 10 CFR 50.62 The purpose of this inspection was to determine whether ATWS mitigating systems that are not safety related comply with the 10 CFR 50.62 rule, to detennine whether the QA controls applied to the design, procurement, installation, and testing for ATWS equipment complied with Generic Letter No. 85-06, "QA Guidance for ATWS Equipment That Is Not Safety Related," and to assess the operational raadiness of the ATWS equipment that is not safety relate Relative to ATWS mitigating systems, the inspector determined the following: (1) The Recirculation Pump Trip (RPT) was installed during

- the original construction of LaSalle. It is described in Amendment 31 the LaSalle SER, dated March 198 of (2)the TheLaSalle FSAR and Unit 2 Alternate Rodwas approved by(ARI) system was installed on Injection Modification No. M-1-2-84-061. (3) The Unit 1 ARI system and the Units 1 and 2 Standby Liquid Control System (SLCS) modifications are scheduled for the Spring 1988 refueling outag Although ATWS modifications were not required to be classified as safety related, the ARI and SLCS were classified as safety related due to their interface with existing safety related equipment. Therefore, design, procurement, and installation to date has been performed in accordance with the existing CECO Quality Assurance program, Documents Reviewed (1) Schedule for Complying with ATWS Rule, dated October 10, 198 (2) Safety Evaluation in Support of the BWR Owners Group's Topical Response to the ATWS Rule, dated Octobar 26, 198 (3) Response for LaSalle County Station regarding compliance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.62, dated October 23, 198 (4) Generic Letter 85-06, "Quality Assurance Guidance for ATWS Equipment That Is Not Safety Related."

Inspection Results At the time of this inspection, RPT was installed on both units, ARI was installed on Unit 2, and no work was in progress on Unit 1 ARI or Units 1 and 2 SLCS. Therefore, this inspection oncentrated on the confirmation of completed work and reviewed the design, procurement, and installation based on a review of the completed linit 2 ARI modification package and a selective walkdown of ATWS systems. The inspector also reviewed selected portions of the procurement activities for the Unit 1 ARI modificatio '

.

(1) Design Engineering The inspector reviewed the licensee's response to 10 CFR 50.62; the SER accepting the BWR Owner's Group Topical Report,

"NEDE-31096-P;" Generic Letter 85-06; and Modification Package No. M-1-2-84-06 This review of selected portions of the licensee's design indicated that it was properly implemented and did not compromise the safety features of the existing Reactor Protection Syste The inspector did not review the design for the RPT system since it was installed prior to the ATWS rule and had previously en accepted in NUREG-0519. Further, it is described in Appendix G of the LSCS FSA (2) Procurement and Installation Review of the completed Unit 2 ARI modification and the future Unit 1 ARI modification indicated the following:

(a) The technical requirements in Purchase Order (P0)

No. 270663, "Rosemount Level and Pressure Transmitters;"

No. 293803, "Valcor Solenoid Valves;" and No. 291762,

"ARI Control Panels" were consistent with the licensee's desig (b) The above material had been properly receipt inspected and accepted in accordance with the CECO QA program requirements. Material in storage for the Unit 1 ARI modification was stored in acceptable Level B storage with controlled acces (c) The equipment to be installed for the Unit 1 ARI met the configuration specified relative to type, range, and materia (d) Walkdown of the Unit 2 ARI produced the following results:

1 Pressure transmitters Nos. 401A through D and level transmitters Nos. N460A through C were located, orientated and supported as specified by the design document Inspection of the Division I and II ARI Panels, No. P800 and No. P801, indicated that physical separation and electrical independence criteria were me _ _ ___ _ __ __ - ____ _ _ _ _ _ _ ._ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ __ . _ . __ _ _ _

t (3) Confirmation of Completed Work The inspection verified the following aspects of the Unit 2 ARI and RPT:

(a) Operating procedures. bad been generated or suitably revised for ARI ATWS operation. . Review of Reactor 0perator (RO) and Senior Reactor Operator (SRO) training: records selected at random indicated that personnel had been trained on the procedures and operation of the syste (b) Surveillance procedures for the ARI and RPT calibrations and functional tests were in place and implemente (c) The RPT and ARI systems contain test switches which '

allow the testing of these systems at power without

.

disabling these systems. The RPT Logic Functional Test, No. LES-1212-201, had been performed as scheduled. The ARI Logic Functional Test Procedure, No. LES-RD-202, was in draft undergoing approval. It has not been performed to date. This was not considered deficient since this procedure has an 18 mo.9th time interval and the logic was  ;

tested prior to the system being accepte (d) Permanent test switches are installed on each ARI cabinet  !

in the Aux Electric Room. These switches allow maintenance *

and testing of the solenoid valve coils without opening '

those valves. Bypass status of the solenoid valves is ,

indicated by a "system in test" indicator. light on the  ;

P603 control panel in the control room. In addition, the

"ARI trouble" annunciator in the control room will sound if the switches are moved to the test positio (e) Review of the ATWS schematic control diagrams verified that once the ARI was initiated there was a two minute time delay built in to assure that the system would complete its action (all rods inserted). Once the system

'

times out, the manual reset feature of the system would i allow return to normal operatio k

(f) Manual initiation of the ARI system was verified by

observation of the manual initiation switches on the '

P003 panel Denchhoard of the control roo (4) Quality Assurance and Qualifications The inspector verified that the ATWS mitigating systems were being designed, installed, tested, and operated under the Ceco l Appendix B QA Program. Tech staff and control toom personnel >

contacted during this inspection appeared knowledgeable and >
